Gameweek 19 is brought to a close by the extraordinary events at the Stadium of Light and, with less than twenty four hours before the next deadline is upon us, our members don’t have long to digest the statistics and peruse our speculative thoughts on the Fantasy Premier League bonus…

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

    0.4 in bank, 1FT.

    Do I:

    1 - finally lose Given for Sorensen/Ruddy/Lindergaard
    2 - Ba out for Sturridge/Agbonlahor
    3 - save FT

      I think VDV is the only risk really, Defoe or Pav could come in to replace him but after seeing what's happened to United and City this week I doubt Harry will be too keen to rotate especially with the lack of decent replacements.

    Evening all,

    I have used my 2 FT to bring in VDV and Baines.

    It feels like a gamble but as the two sides traditional main point scorers, I think it is a good move.

    I already have Bale and Ade.

    Probably will captain Bale.

    Phew...amazing scenes at the SoL. Did me a massive favour in the cup.

    On 30pts, with none to play before Citeh - was ahead by 6pts with opponent on 24pts but he had Aguero (c) & Kompany still to come and had (v) VDV. Genuinely thought I was a goner.

    Anyway finished my 30pts to his 28pts and it looks like it'll come down to bonus:

    Me: Ruddy, Baines, Koscielny, Shawx (c), Osman, Etherington, Modric, Mata, RVP, Ba, Ade.
    Him: Vorm, Enrique, Raylor, Jones, Kompany, VDV (v), Modric, Adam, Ade, Ba, Aguero (c).

    Anyone 'in the know' BPs wise predict this? Looks too tight to call.....
